the teacher evaluations are absolutely priceless. Teacher evaluations appreciation post.
"Attractive bard teacher I can't remember her name."
Fig intimidating Riz into giving Eugenia all fives and him saying "Good at rogue stuff but the double fisting cigarettes was a bit much."
Fig making Porter and Zara share a form but giving Lucilla her own and Porter getting SO incensed about it.
"After all these years, still not sure if Porter is secretly evil, but smiting is so sick."
"Yeah yeah, stabby stabby" for Corsica Jones
"Strongly disagree that teacher prepared for class, but this is the way of dance. Dance is present. Dance is now. [...] Also, again, I'm so sorry. Please let me buy you a new shirt."
i hope that the discussion about student protests does not get reduced to "privileged rich kids faffing around at an ivy league school." setting aside that tenuous claim, over the last week, protests have erupted over the entire country. a few days ago, riot police beat, pepper-sprayed, and arrested NYU faculty shielding students; protests started at the university of southern california when the admin cancelled the valedictorian's speech; encampments appeared at the university of southern carolina, UT dallas, the university of maryland, the university of new mexico, IUPUI, virginia tech, the university of virginia, the university of illinois, the university of north carolina — chapel hill, the university of pittsburgh, uc berkeley, the university of michigan — ann arbor, MIT, emerson, tufts, the university of rochester, rice, swarthmore, the new school, vanderbilt university, with students arrested; students protested or walked out at miami university, northwestern, temple, the 5 claremont colleges: pomona, pitzer, scripps, harvey mudd, and claremont mckenna, stanford, washington university in st louis, students were arrested at ohio state, students were confronted by riot police at cal poly humboldt, after which they occupied campus, students were arrested at the university of minnesota — twin cities, after which faculty walked out; and yes, there are protests at the other ivies, most notably yale, with students facing mass arests after encampments, but there is also an encampment at brown, protests appeared at cornell, princeton faculty issued a statement of solidarity while students are preparing an encampment, and harvard banned the undergraduate palestine solidarity committee. there are thousands of students who are protesting for palestine across the entire country, facing harassment, arrest, and suspension in return
ohhh everyone wants to go on and on about supporting women’s wrongs but when i, kipperlilly copperkettle, envy the tragic past of my peers so much that i desecrate my teacher’s grave and drug the student population of aguefort and kill my party’s cleric (twice) in service of reviving a corrupted rage god—
god. sometimes i feel like i’m not very good at being a kid. i forgot how much i relate to adaine but the conversation between her and sandra lynn killed me. i literally almost started crying
'You, mortal beings, are the instrument by which the universe cares' — maybe the bad kids don't get special treatment, maybe they love each other with such intense ferocity that the lengths they would go to for each other transcend their real lives. Fabian picked up his sword again to save Adaine, Fig was willing to burn their only proof of Kalina and risk failing the year if it meant Riz wouldn't be sad, the first thing that Kristen ever does at Aguefort is to ask Gorgug if he's okay. Maybe they aren't getting special treatment that Kipperlilly has to put an end to, maybe they have just never seen each other as dispensible.
